We took the scenic route from Moab to Silverthorne today, a drive that covered about 410 miles and took us 9 hours. The scenery was terrific as we drove along the Delores River canyons toward Grand Junction. We visited our last National Monument in Colorado just outside Fruita, and took the 23 mile Ramrod Drive which provided us with our first unclose shots of some mule deer. We didn't get to Silverthorne until 9 PM, had some pizza with Alice & Alex, took our first showers in five days, and hit the hay. It was 41 degrees when we got into our van for the night.
The wild wild west! 41 degrees... Ouch!
